All scheduled hearings in Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor's felony assault case have been postponed, including one set to take place yesterday, and his trial date of May 8 likely will be pushed back as well, according to members of the defense and prosecution.

Brandon Lloyd, acquired in a trade last month to bolster the Washington Redskins receiving corps, signed a long-term contract extension with the team yesterday.

Given his pedigree, it was not likely linebacker LaVar Arrington would make it into the month of April without hooking on with a new team.

The Washington Redskins filled their need for a nickel back by signing cornerback Kenny Wright.

Free agent cornerback Jamar Fletcher has canceled today's scheduled visit to Redskins Park, according to a source with knowledge of the situation, and does not anticipate future negotiations with the club.
